Quote: When Sarah (Olsen) finds herself sealed inside her family's secluded lake house with no contact to the outside world, panic soon turns to terror as events become increasingly ominous. Directed by filmmaking duo Chris Kentis and Laura Lau (Open Water), Silent House uses meticulous camera choreography to take the audience on a tension-filled, real time journey. Also starring Adam Trese (40 Days and 40 Nights, Zodiac) and Eric Sheffer Stevens (Julie & Julia), Silent House is an intensely visceral experience that Dan Jewel of Life & Style raves is “unbearably suspenseful and utterly terrifying.”

I haven't seen this, and don't necessarily care to. That's not to say I'm assuming it's awful, it's just to say I have no interest in it. Also, I assume it's awful.
I dug Burning Bright too, but this is underrated. Not a great movie (I gave it a B) but I thought it was well-worth a watch.
Yeah, Burning Bright was very good. This was terrible.
This movie was awful. Boring and derivative (particularly the ending). Also, the whole "real time" thing is moot once you get to the end. She is fun to watch, and she's a great actress, but this movie is bad. See Burning Bright for something similar, but much better. That was a great, suspenseful, trapped-in-the-house movie.
Yeh this was lame and i thought the ending made it WORSE. I still found the rest of it boring but the ending has been done to death and a cop out. Also the whole "single take" thing is silly, obviously they edit it all together anyway. I dont get why that was used as a selling point.
I disagree. I thought it was an enjoyable psychological thriller with a fantastic performance by Elizabeth Olsen. While many disagree I thought the ending made the movie better.
Stupid, dull, soporific, moronic, pointless, boring. One of the worst movies of the year. If you want to see this THAT badly please just wait for cable.
The cover would look better without the review quote.
